How do I help a friend dealing with illness and depression?
i wish i knew the answer, my father was diagnosed 2 months ago then 5 other things happened so he is 3 weeks behind on chemo but cells have shrunk a little and stayed. now he has depression he just wants out of the hp and he knows he has to go to rehab for 5 days 2 and a half months ling time. yes positve motivation i heard is what counts, and the closer the people are to you the easier it is for them to lash out at u its love but in a different way.me and my mother are going through the same , my father didnt want visters and now i think on top of depression he is sick of us lol u no what i mean. so i talk with my mother and we may get a third person that he does not now (when he gets home and comfortable) to help and to push him a little espically with pt. he will be getting pt but we still are thinking about a third person, cause he will listen and he is not close enough to lash out. hope it helps you and GOD BLESS
Don know what to say I can just advice you to pray to God about the condition of your friend.its only God who can help her, and don't gave up on her God Bless tour a good friend
